When a realist with a Roth IRA encounters a free-spirit with glitter in her pocket, an ephemeral connection that feels timeless is sparked. Their once-in-a-lifetime rendezvous leads to a surreal day of ice cream, wishes, and unspoken truths about love, time, and vulnerability. Skepticism clashes with rose-tinted spontaneity in a tender journey that explores living in the moment-- no matter how long it may last-- and letting go of control.

Swept up in a whirlwind of attention and mixed signals, Candy attempts to balance her yearning for love with the adolescent struggle of self-worth and identity. She toes the fragile boundary between love and obsession while failing to grasp the stark realities of heartbreaks and teenage friendships. At her breaking point, Candy faces the burning desire to be seen with a moment of fiery, irreversible reckoning.
